Annual Mission Day Final Session - 2015 - Andy Paterson

Andy Paterson (now of the FIEC and Charlotte Chapel, Edinburgh) challenges us not to compartmentalise our understanding of mission. Conversion must lead on to sanctification, as we go and make disciples. World mission is not a separate branch of church life; it is the role of the church. Mission is not just for professionals but for every church member, as much the job of the church here as of missionaries in other countries. Prayer for mission can seem like battling intercession, but it also needs to be mingled with praise to God. Indeed, praise to God fuels our prayer for mission.
